Blockprint of child's dress with dots

This is a block print based on my drawing of a child's dress. The design of the dress was drawn and then pressed into a piece of polystyrene (the block). Paint was applied to its surface and then a piece of cartridge paper pressed onto it. The design comes out back to front, which I hadn't taken into account when I drew it, and made for interesting results!
